Game Notes: A First For Jenkins

For the second time this season, a Packers defensive lineman posted the first interception of his career.

On Sunday, it was defensive end Cullen Jenkins, who picked off quarterback Daunte Culpepper's screen pass intended for running back Kevin Smith at the Detroit 21 on the Lions' opening series. Jenkins returned the pick four yards, helping to set up a John Kuhn touchdown catch that pushed the Packers' lead to 14-0. It was one of three Green Bay interceptions on the afternoon.

"I came off and then kind of halfway through the rush, I felt the running back and everybody trying to sneak in behind me," said Jenkins. "Then I just started backing up and the ball was kind of hanging up there.

"All I kept telling myself was, 'Don't drop it.' It felt great. At least now if you look at my career stats, you'll always see a '1' in the interception column. They can't take it away from me now."
